Andrei Iosivas News
Sunday, March 15, 9:25 AM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas is an underrated NFL wideout who would probably be much more fantasy relevant if he were on another team. But in Cincinnati, he's a forgotten man behind one of the best WR duos in the league in Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. The 26-year-old former sixth-round selection by Cincy in 2023 out of Princeton was fourth on the team last year with 435 receiving yards in 17 games (nine starts). Iosivas caught 33 of his 58 targets for just two touchdowns. In 2024, he had a career-best 479 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 36 receptions. It didn't help his cause in 2025 that quarterback Joe Burrow missed eight games with a toe injury. The Bengals' third receiver will go undrafted in 12-team fantasy leagues this fall, but an injury to Chase or Higgins would make Iosivas an interesting waiver-wire pickup. He finished his third year in the NFL as the No. 70 overall receiver in half-PPR scoring, averaging just 4.9 fantasy points per game.

Jayden Higgins News
Tuesday, March 24, 5:42 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins was the fifth receiver selected in the 2025 NFL Draft, and while he showed flashes in his rookie season, he was never able to consistently string together the games needed to make him a reliable weekly fantasy starter, finishing 13th among all first-year pass catchers with 41 receptions. Heading into his second season, the Texans are expecting the return of one of C.J. Stroud's favorite targets in Tank Dell, who missed all of the 2025 season following a devastating knee injury at the close of the 2024 season. Additionally, Stroud himself has fallen under scrutiny following a lackluster season punctuated by the worst game of his career in a Divisional Round loss to the Patriots. With Nico Collins all but locked into his role on the boundary, Higgins and Dell will likely compete for time in two-receiver sets in an offense that will need to improve drastically in order to support multiple pass catchers. On pure potential, Higgins might have the second-highest ceiling in the Texans' receiver room, but in order to reach it in 2026, he'll need to clear some significant obstacles.
